LinuxQuestions.org - Eclipse PHP - web development with RSE and Egit

Hi all.

I have been bouncing and bouncing among tutorials and guides over the last few days and still haven't find any thing quite OK for PHP developing using Eclipse.

Me and my friends have been using git to version control and team working on develop our website for a while. We sync our git repo with git hub and occasionally, we manually check out the master branch, upload it to server and test it there.

Recently we obtained one new server (It's window server and I'm completely unfamiliar with it) and the number of website we are currently coding has grew a bit so the check out, upload, extract and test become cumbersome. More over, If I made some edit to the file on the server, I have to manually copy it over to local project. The whole process is so so tedious and boring and time consuming.

So I searched around and found the Remote system explorer plugins for eclipse. I can export a local project to the remote server and sync the work between my PC and the server. It work fine with simple project that have no version control and team working, but I miss the power of git so much for large project. Whenever I try to export an already-setuped-github-sync project to remote server with RSE, a warning appear tell me that all Team settings for the current project will be discarded and I'm stuck right there.

Can you please share with me your setup? What do you use for web development with Eclipse and git that can automate the process of syncing between local project and remote testing server? I'm dying for a clue here.
